Or you could realize that you arent going to get AWD 320hp and 320lb ft torque for $24k brand new car.

As for the styling of the Evo X, I like the front alot but the rear end looks like crap.

Also the new STi Hatchback is just so awesome, I cant wait to see one in person.

I don't know what happened to Subaru design guys. It's really ugly.

2008 subaru. The stunt double for ford focus'

reaper702 · 07-13-2007, 03:46 PM

the wrx being a disapiontment is an understatement. 04-05 will always be the only good looking sti in my eyes and everything else just horrendous.

e60.deluxe · 07-13-2007, 05:10 PM

not that i like the impreza...

but the back of a new lancer looks like a cross between the back of a lexus IS and the back of 8th gen galant, an the front..looks like a cross between the front of an 8th gen galant and the back of a lexus IS.

The evo to me looks like it extremely heavy and it looks like the wheelbase is too short imo.

**atruhondagrl** · 07-13-2007, 06:15 PM

I love the new Evo. I think it's a definite improvement over the last model. But since I saw it's concept last year, I can't help but think that a lot of European designs were used to concoct it. Like the previously mentioned Audi and one of my personal favorites, the Alfa Romeo 159.

In late 2005, Alfa Romeo released their new 159.
This is the back end.

Every time I see the back end of a new Lancer I'm reminded of the 159.

Wow you totally went backwards and downgraded. You went from AWD Turbo to FWD N/A i would of kept the Rex man that looks awesome! if i had to sell the STI for an SI i would be pissed.

BTW Subaru OWNS/Pwns Hondas any day. You also went from a high HP and High tourque monster to a low HP and no tourque pos SI.

In your opinion... Everyone has different motives.
